Steel Rails Lyrics

Alison Krauss Steel Rails Lyrics

Steel rails chasin sunshine round the bend
Windin through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind, not knowin what lies down the track
Cause Im lookin out ahead to keep my mind from turnin back
Its not the first time, I found myself alone at dawn
If I really had you once, then Id have you when Im gone
Whistle blowin, blowin lonesome in my mind
Callin me along that never endin metal line
Steel rails chasin sunshine round the bend
Windin through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind, not knowin what lies down the track
Cause Im lookin out ahead to keep my mind from turnin back
Sun is shining through the open box car door
Lyin in my mind with the things Ive known before
Ive lost count of the hours days and times
Just the rhythm of the rails keeps the motion in my mind
Steel rails chasin sunshine round the bend
Windin through the trees like a ribbon in the wind
I dont mind not knowin what lies down the track
Cause Im lookin out ahead to keep my mind from turnin back
Cause Im lookin out ahead....... to keep my mind from turnin back
